Maxis Mates

Can live with: Experienced Single FemaleI am a cuddle bunny when I am a good boy.I am not reactive to other dogs and can be lovely to walk.I need someone around most of the time and a garden to play in and sunbathe.I need an experienced owner who is understanding, patient and can help me work through my issues.My favourite thing to do is to fetch a ball and also to dig a hole for it after I have finished running.Not suitable to live with children"Alan is a lovely dog 90% of the time. He is a personal favourite of Jane's and Carolyn's, but he does have issues so he may, unfortunately, have to be one of our resident dogs if we cannot find the right owner. Alan is happy here at Maxi's Mates and we love him to bits!"

Yappy Ever After

Five-year-old Amber came to us a few weeks ago from a pound in Kent as she wasn’t claimed.When she arrived with us, she was found to have a suspicious-looking lump in her chin and after being analysed and removed this was found to be a low-grade mast cell tumour.The tumour was completely excised shortly afterwards with good margins, but unfortunately a sampled lymph node showed signs of mast cells. Amber’s prognosis is still favourable as it could be isolated spread (and even if not, further lymph nodes could be removed) so she has been to our for a staging procedure today, with the results due in a few days.Amber is another beautiful soul who has been so badly let down. It breaks my heart think of her not only being abandoned and ending in a council pound, but all while she had cancer starting to slowly spread around her body. She is such a lovely-natured girl who loves people and dogs alike.Thankfully, she is in a wonderful foster home and has the best vet care. We will do everything we can for Amber and will keep everyone posted.

Are you right for Bear?Bear is a handsome 1yr old Labradoodle who is looking for a new home. He's led a very sheltered life so far and will need patient adopters who are ready to do lots of training and confidence building with him. He's already come a long way and is a fun and friendly boy. He should be fine with older kids who understand when to let him relax and if they're confident around bouncy, playful dogs. Due to the need for many visits to the centre and to get to know him, his home must be within a 1hr drive of the Leeds rehoming centre.

Beau is a stunning four year old crossbreed (Labrador, Weimaraner, staffy possibly) who needs a new home through no fault of her own. She is a stunning large breed girl (38kg) and adores people. She’s been around children 3+ with no issues so we would be happy to rehome her with sensible dog savvy children 3+. She has never lived with another dog and she will bark when she sees other dogs although her owners say she just wants to play so a home as an only dog or with a friendly neutered male would be suited. She isn’t suited to living with cats as she has never been around them. She is friendly with new people out and about and in her home although she can be excited and jump up for fuss. She can pull on her lead but with further training I think this would improve significantly and she is not unmanageable at all. She would suit an active home where she would get plenty of exercise. She loves her food (that would be the Lab!) and takes treats well. We are told she has good recall and loves to play ball. She travels ok and is fine to be left for reasonable periods. She is speyed and vaccinated and chipped. Forever homes can be anywhere within the UK but you will need to travel to meet them where we are based in Alcester, Warwickshire. Our adoption fee is £250.

Yappy Ever After

Beau and Prince, a bonded pair of brothers, arrived with us a couple of weeks ago and we would love for them to be adopted in time for Christmas. The boys are due their vet checks next week, but we would like to start taking applications for their forever home together now (if any issues are found this may be subject to change as they will need for be in foster for longer).They are two years old.Here is their foster-dad’s write-up…“When Prince and Beau first came to us, they were understandably excitable and a little anxious after a sudden move. It was clear they had been very loved and well cared for, which probably made the transition harder. From day one, though, their trust in people and affectionate nature shone through.These boys are absolutely gorgeous and super friendly. They love cuddles and often snuggle up to you—and each other—for comfort. They’re playful too and really enjoy a good game of fetch (they’re excellent at dropping the ball!).Over time, we’ve seen their excitement settle and their gentle side emerge. A consistent routine has helped them feel more secure and calm. They know basic commands and are improving every day, but like many big, enthusiastic dogs, they need a little help with manners.Walking can still be a challenge—they pull and sometimes lose recall when they’re excited—but this is getting better daily. Their recall on a retractable lead is already much improved, and with time, enclosed spaces or large fields will suit them perfectly. Walking them individually is easier, and they have Halti headcollars available if needed.Prince and Beau would thrive in a home with a large garden for exercise while you continue to work on lead skills. They do find it hard to be left alone so a home where someone is usually around would be ideal. Gradually building up their confidence with safe spaces like crates or beds will help with separation anxiety and sleeping routines.They’re toilet trained, though Beau occasionally scent marks—something that’s already improving and should settle further once they’re neutered.They haven’t been tested with cats, so a cat-free home is recommended, and because of their size and boisterous nature, a family with older children would be best.When meeting other dogs and people, they’re eager and vocal, but once introduced, they’re very friendly. We’ve seen no aggression—just playful energy and the occasional normal doggy squabble between themselves.In short, these boys are like big puppies: full of love, fun, and personality, with a few rough edges that time, patience, and training will smooth out. An adopter who understands that progress takes time and is willing to put in the effort will help. Everything we’ve seen is manageable and improving every day, but they will require consistency and commitment.Prince and Beau are wonderful and they deserve a home that will give them the love and guidance they need. If you’re ready for two affectionate, playful dogs who will reward you with endless cuddles and loyalty, these boys could be the perfect match.If you’re ready to give them the stability, patience, and love they need, they will reward you with endless cuddles, loyalty, and joy. These boys are precious and deserve a home that will help them blossom into amazing companions”.The boys will need to stay local to Derby, Nottingham, Burton, Chesterfield or Stoke for their second vaccination/neutering (both paid for by the rescue)

Are you right for Bella Boo?Meet the beautiful, Bella Boo! She's full of fun, energy and love to give her forever family. Bella is on the search for her an active and adult only forever home. She loves nothing more than being out and about exploring, playing and getting her nose into mischief. Bella Boo loves to play with her doggy friends of a similar size, however she can get boisterous and over the top in her playstyle. She could live with another dog however it would beneficial that they could have areas in the house to have time apart if needed. She's is a big, boisterous girlie who often forgets her size, so her new family will need to committed to continuing her ongoing training with guidance from our team at the centre. Bella Boo struggles being left home alone and therefore would love to find a home where she can have someone with her most of (if not all) of the time. She adores her food and is a very clever girly who can find her way into the treat cupboard so adopters must ensure the house pooch proof. It's important to ensure that Bella Boo has lots to do in the home as well as out and about to keep her mind busy. She is very good at food based enrichment such as puzzle toys or snuffle mats so this is a great way to keep her entertained. Bella Boo travels well in the car, which means she loves to go and explore new places. Bella Boo does wear her muzzle out and about on her walkies, which she knows just how fabulous she looks!
